Zanka will not play tomorrow. It appears that the RSCA defender played his final minutes at Lotto Park in the defeat against Dender, when he was booed by part of the crowd and responded with a hand gesture.
« If this innocuous gesture has anything to do with the situation we find ourselves in today ? »No, it’s football” replied Hubert. “These are things that happen in the world of football. Zanka is a player with an exceptional mentality and a great personality. He helped us with all his might during his stay here. On the field, but also off it. We know that opportunities can present themselves to any player at any time. And it’s a solution that suits both parties».
Who will replace Jorgensen tomorrow evening at Kiel? Of course, David Hubert did not want to reveal his intentions. “ Of course, it’s not easy. It would be easy if I had three players available for each position. This is unfortunately not the case today. So you have to think outside the box. Several options are possible. In the end, it doesn’t matter who plays where, the most important thing is that Anderlecht wins. »
